Greenleaf is proud to announce the start of our Sixth annual Spring Fling Contest! Last years contest was such fun, we decided to to get back to what Greenleaf is known for... Afforadibility! We’re getting back to our roots by offering an ultra-affordable delivered project… only $18.95 with FREE SHIPPING ON YOUR ENTIRE ORDER*! Now how do you like them apples! Speaking of apples, one of the additions available this year is a cute farm stand just ready to be filled with mini fruit! Of course, it can be used for many other purposes just like the other available options, but all are meant to change the feel of the kit and not necessarily make it a bigger project, so they aren’t necessary to compete. I’d like to point out that a lot of these accessories would look great on a variety of other Greenleaf dollhouses, so here’s your chance to pick them up at a substantial saving! I'm also happy to announce that the ever popular prize category called "luck of the draw", which is a randomly selected winner, will be returning this year. Also, time is not of essence because we are extending the contest until September 3, 2012 (Labor Day)!

As usual, we are making it extra interesting; we're going to name this new dollhouse after the winner! That's right, we'll rename it after you… it's your chance to be forever immortalized as part of the Greenleaf product line. Now how cool is that?

In a nutshell, just submit a picture of a scene with your project that must include the base house and you might win one of these great prizes below. The best news is that Greenleaf has put together a special deal on the Base Project kit for $18.95 with FREE SHIPPING on your entire order* (more details below)! So join us in the fun as we celebrate the seasons!

That's right, $500 to spend as you want in the Greenleaf Company Store! That's enough to buy our laser cut flagship model, the Beaumont Dollhouse Kit!

Second Prize - A $250 Gift Certificate to the Greenleaf Company Store

That's right, $250 to spend as you want in the Greenleaf Company Store! That's enough to buy the Select Edition of the Brookwood Dollhouse! The Select Edition of the Brookwood Dollhouse is a special production run in which we upgrade the kit to the finest birch plywood we could find. It is back in stock and available here.

Luck of the Draw - A $50 Gift Certificate to the Greenleaf Company Store

That's right, after the above winners have been selected, an entry will be pulled at random from the remaining field for $50 to spend as you want in the Greenleaf Company Store! That's enough to buy our new Laser Cut Half Scale Rosedale Dollhouse .

Ohhhhhh :wub: <doing a little swoooooon> now this is such a gorgeous kit!!! Deep breath, ok, so need to see what I need to start with, just for the fun of it....

The mind is racing wi ideas, but Deb, I truly think this can be a Broomerie, or.... Purr-haps those sprocket and cogs can get used... think you can spare the good Doctor a little while to come over here as a muse/inspector?!?

Sure! He's always helpful with anything to do with physics. He'd be quite helpful setting up a Broomerie if you stop and think about how he could put his own particular style spin on that. Isn't it just perfect!

Now y'all see why Tracy and I were just bursting with excitement over this kit. It's just SO awesome. I have three solid plans for this one but the first one is going to be a ______________ because that's the first thing it reminded me of. In fact, it jumped right out of the picture and yelled at me which immediately sent me to look at ________ for inspiration and man oh man, is this ever just the perfect kit for it! I'm going to have so much fun. It took about five minutes to do three pages of sketches and ideas for it so now I need to place an order online for _______ and _____________ and some _______ ___________ ________. Those last ones are going to be black and white but I have a whole list of colors to pick up in those little sample jars in the paint department at Walmart. This weekend is going to require a trip to the model train store so I can get some ___________ and then a stop at Hobby Lobby and finally a stop at Michaels. Even tho he's not doing the Fling, this is fun for Bruce since he's a miniaturist too (he does military and fantasy dioramas) and I know he needs some supplies for his latest project. We'll go to Olive Garden for lunch and make it a date day. It's nice to be married to someone who enjoys shopping for minis as much as I do. Oh, and he made static grass applicators for me and Tracy *and* he's learning how to use a hot knife to sculpt foam so he said he'd teach me to use it too. Wooooooohooooooooooooo!! 'Told you I was stepping way outside my comfort zone with this house! I'm going to learn all kinds of new things.

I'm soooooooooooo excited I can hardly stand it! This kit has me fired up and ready to rock.

YEA!! SOOOO many fabulous little accessories, AND an AWESOME main piece too!! I was SO hoping it was one room, and IT IS!! Dean & CO...YOU ARE THE BEST!!

I ordered just about everything..could NOT resist. Don't know if I'll use it all for this project, but since I don't even have a clue what it wants to be yet, at least I should be well prepared when it reveals itself.
